Build once, use anywhere.

3. Report Annotation and Commenting System
TRUECHART adds cross-platform “smart commenting” to your reporting and analytics processes, allowing stakeholders to add comments, explanations and key messages to any chart, graph, report or key figure. These annotations are centrally stored, linked to key values, and dynamically available for display across all relevant reports, systems and platforms. TRUECHART eliminates comment duplication by managing all annotations and linked values across all systems. For example, A figure and linked comment from you preferred planning system (e.g. Jedox) can be displayed in a “Planned vs. Actual” report in your analytics or performance tracking tools (e.g. Qlik, PowerBI, etc.), or anywhere the value is used.

4. Cross-Platform Chart Library
TRUECHART integrates with your preferred BI platform(s) to build reports once, then manage, (re)use and display them anywhere. Using the TRUECHART API, all content can by integrated across any system, from common BI platforms to in-house developed systems, to any application with an open API. TRUECHART eliminates the need to rebuild content as corporate tools and platforms change…​ your effort and IP is protected and rework is minimized by leveraging and easily managing your report and template library across all platforms. And your software investment is safe too, with a license model that is platform-independent, and not permanently tied to a single BI tool vendor. 1 license fits all.
